According to the reports, Varun is devastated by his driver's sudden demise. He apparently drove Varun to Mehboob on the fateful day as he was shooting for a brand endorsement. Manoj suddenly complained of chest pain and he got a heart attack. While the actor and his crew rushed him to the nearby hospital that is Lilavati, he was declared dead. The actor’s father David Dhawan too spoke to Varun and consoled him. Reports suggest that Varun and his family have decided to look after Manoj's family.
